I THINK REYES HAD A REAL FUTURE AT ARSENAL BUT LET HIM GO THEN GO SIGN SAMUEL ETOO AND FERNANDO TORRES AND GO AND WIN THE TREBLE ( BUT LET THE YOUNSTERS HAVE THE CARLING CUP WHICH CHEALSE WILL PROBALY WIN) AND SEE WHERE HE WANTS TO BE THEN

I think he was home sick and now that he is back home,..may be Seville will solve his sickness.But coming back to Arsenal is the last thing i think will happen.

Not to over exergerate his lack of form, madrid entirle this season have been below standard and so some excuse for Reyes too.

I thought Reyes was an excellent player, bags of skill, lots of energy, not averse to odd crunching tackle. I think this year would have been his year had he not left, even Henry towards the end was warming to him. I would definitely welcome Reyes back, you can’t blame him if he was struggling with the weather, food, language and Henry’s attitude towards him. Give the guy a break.

I have to agree that Reyes gave us something we lack this year. In a word enthusiasm. You could never doubt his committment. Ok some said he dived at times but every time he came on as a sub the whole nature of the game changed from a static passing game to a very active passing game with some punch. and when he played from the start we were far more direct because of his runs at defences. We have needed his (and Bobby Pires) runs at defences this year to drag the midfield into the attack. But a fan of Reyes as I am I don’t want him back if he doesn’t want to play for us.

A lot of Arsenal fans find it all too easy to critisize TH, especially when it comes to his relationship with Reyes. I find that very appalling. One has done a hell of a lot more for the club, and loves the club passionately, the other did and said everything possible including going on radio to chat rubbish about Arsenal and England, and even went as far as wearing another teams colours. All you guys should make your mind up about who deserves more crititism than the other.

No one was more arrogant than Eric Cantona, but you will never hear Manure fans chastising him the way we do Tierry Henry. George Best was arrogant, but again, you will never hear Manure fans saying stupid things like we so easily say so openly about TH. In recent times, no one has done more for Arsenal than TH. Be grateful. I am sure all or most of the players read stuff like these from newspapers and websites alike. Lets all be grateful so that when he reads stuff like such, he will only see the positives, and kill himself just a little bit more for the club he loves soooooooooooo much.

Everyone seems to forget that the hard time that TH started giving Reyes became more obvious after the incident with Aragones which TH not having done anything to deserve those horrible horrible comments from Aragones should at the very least be the beneficiary of some public support or any kind of support from a team mate which was never forth coming.

Remember also that last season, Reyes started almost all the CL matches, but when Pires recovered from injury, Reyes was dropped in favour of Pires for the final against Barca. This is because Reyes looses possession of the ball too often, and With Arsenal playing Barcelona, AW knew that Barca will punish us if we kept losing the ball, so he rightfully played Pires who was a better player any way in favour of Reyes.

Just remember also that Reyes is a good player, but good players should and must surely give place to better players. If Arsenal want to be dominant over a sustained period, we need players who are better than some of the good ones we currently have.

Reyes has already burnt all his bridges and will definitely not be welcomed back by AW unless Real make it difficult for us with Baptista. Baptista will be a monster for us next season has he gets used to what the EPL is all about. He will have to be patient though as AW uses the coming pre-season to decide what his best strikeforce combination is. Will it be Henry-Adebayor? or Henry-Baptista? Or Henry-Van Persie? It will not be an easy decision and I can forsee some unhappy campers moaning next season too.

Give me Reyes back anyday ahead of Baptista - Great first touch, lively and always dangerous in and around the box.
